The Space:
High above Waikiki, mornings arrive as soft light spreads across the skyline while the steady presence of the ocean stretches out below. Step onto the private lanai as the day begins, breathe in the warm island air, and take in sweeping views of the ocean, bay, and city before you.

The Neighborhood:
Waikiki is the vibrant heart of Honolulu, best known for its stunning crescent-shaped beach and iconic views of Diamond Head. This lively neighborhood is a world-class destination that combines tropical beauty with urban excitement. You’ll find everything you need within walking distance—upscale shopping on Kalakaua Avenue, fresh island fare at local restaurants, and endless options for entertainment and nightlife. During the day, soak up the sun on Waikiki Beach or take a surf lesson in its gentle, rolling waves. If you prefer a more active adventure, hike up Diamond Head Trail for panoramic views of Oahu’s coastline.
Waikiki also offers a taste of local culture: Visit the Honolulu Zoo or catch a hula performance along the beach. Each evening, the sunset lights up the sky in brilliant hues of orange and pink, providing a magical backdrop for a stroll along the promenade. Staying here puts you at the center of it all—Waikiki’s unique blend of island charm, modern amenities, and easy access to nature make it an unforgettable place to call home during your Hawaiian getaway.
Getting Around:
Getting around Waikiki is a breeze, whether you want to explore on foot or set out on a scenic drive. The neighborhood itself is famously walkable—restaurants, shops, and the beach are just steps away, making it easy to soak up the local atmosphere. If you’re looking to venture beyond Waikiki’s bustling streets, you can hop on TheBus (Oahu’s public transportation), rent a bike, or request a ride-share service for hassle-free trips around town.
Best of all, our listing comes with dedicated parking—an invaluable perk in this area—so if you’re planning to rent a car or bring your own, you’ll have a secure, convenient spot waiting for you. This means you can effortlessly explore Oahu’s stunning landscapes, from the lush North Shore to the historic sites near Pearl Harbor, and still return to your own parking space at day’s end. With so many transportation options at your fingertips, you’ll find it easy to explore all that Waikiki and the rest of the island have to offer.

Enjoyed staying at this property, location was great and a very short walk to the beach. The unit was clean and check in process was very easy. The only inconvenience was that the bathtub stopper/plug did not work and shower water pressure was low... but overall, it was a good experience.
Older property, but nicely kept. Large one room suite. Great ocean view. Very responsive management. Only thing missing is luggage storage room for red eye customers.
This property was just as advertised. It was close to everything in Waikiki, clean and comfortable. There were so many places to eat and the beach was so close that we hardly had to drive anywhere. The parking garage was a little cramped if you have a big car or SUV but still much better than trying to street park. There was a nice view of the ocean from the porch.
The condo is in a great location, within a couple blocks of Waikiki beach and walking distance to many great restaurants and bars. The views from the 36 floor give you both the beach and the mountains. The A/C and fan included kept the condo at our desired temperature even though it was the middle of the summer. Parking is in the garage and we never had trouble finding a spot. Also, great communication from the host and nice little care package left as a greeting. Overall, my wife and I loved the place and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
We had a fantastic stay and would definitely book this apartment again!The apartment was perfect for our family of four. It was spacious, very clean, and the kitchenette was well equipped with everything we needed to prepare breakfast. The view from the 36th floor was absolutely amazing.The location couldn’t have been better—everything in Waikiki was within a short walking distance, including the beach, restaurants and shopping.The host was extremely friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout our stay, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable.A special highlight was the recently renovated pool and whirlpool area, which was spotless and a great place to relax after a day of exploring.Overall, this was an excellent place to stay, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book it again on our next trip to Waikiki. Highly recommended!
The property location was great two blocks from the beach. The only issue we had was the sofa bed. It was me and my two sons and we had to call a couple times to try to get the bed to close. It would keep getting stuck on something and we could sit on the sofa our recommendation would be to upgrade the sofa bed to prevent this issue for future travelers.
This is the 2nd time we’ve stayed at the Waikiki Banyan and loved it just as much this time as we did the first. We love staying there and cannot wait to return.
the place was exactly that I expected. located near the beach and the shopping centers. there was a market nearby to get groceries and near plenty of restaurants to walk to. free parking was a major plus.
everything was wonderful! the place the cleanliness the kitchen has everything you need for your stay, the washing machine helped us a lot, when we needed something they responded immediately without a doubt we will return, and without a doubt I will recommend it to everyone, we love our stay 🥰❤️
The overall building is rather old. Parking is a bit cumbersome and there can be a line to enter or exit. The apartment is nice and offers beautiful ocean view. Fully equipped kitchen and all amenities we needed were there. Mahalo
This condo had wonderful views! I knew I was living the dream life every day. The place was clean and neat. It had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant. The sleeper couch was new and comfortable. There were even 3 rolls of toilet paper, a plus. We also had paper towels, salt and pepper and spray oil—all very helpful, The beach towels and beach chairs meant lighter luggage for us. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the unit. Bed was very comfortable, AC kept the room nice and cool. Additionally, being located right across the hall from laundry turned out to be quite convenient.
Only comment/recommendation i have is they need to update their list of recommended restaurants. We tried to go to a coffee house that was listed but it was permanently closed (appeared to have been closed for quite some time)
The unit we had was nice. The bed was comfortable, the pillows were good and the kitchen had everything we needed.
The only I would change is the shower curtain ( it’s a cheap 1 ply and had no liner), add an ice bin to the freezer and maybe add an option to swap sheets and towels after 5-7 days. We loved the view, liked the parking spot being included!
The common areas (Capet in the hall, pool area, hot tubs didn’t have very good air flow) were a little run down and the people above us were very noisy, but that is not the owners fault.
